Elderly Mrs. Hunt was taken aback. âWhat do you mean, you didnât get fired?â
Nora paid no further attention to him. After all, chatting with her was a total waste of time. She replied politely, âIâm going to bed. Good night.â
And then she hung up.
If she wasnât Justinâs grandmother, she wouldnât even bother to say good night to him.
How dare she say sheâs not adept at establishing interpersonal relationships? Uh-huh.
Nora picked up the phone and texted Solo, âHow do I seem to you as a person?â
Solo, who was far away in Switzerland, gnashed his teeth in fury at the sight of her text message.
If she hadnât saved his life, he wouldnât have let himself be enslaved and suppressed by her so easily.
But did he dare to defend himself? Of course he didnât.
So, Solo replied, âYouâre fantastic! Absolutely great!â
Nora was very pleased. See, even someone as unsociable and eccentric as Solo thought she was a great person. Why would she be bad at establishing and maintaining interpersonal relationships with others?
Solo sent another message, âIâll be back in the States in a couple of days and Iâll be in New York, do you want to meet up?â
He was going back to New York?
gⱯlnÏνð®âsâ¤cóm is your escape Didnât that mean it would be perfect for her to use him to cover up her identity?
Nora didnât want her identity as Q exposed. So, she replied, âGood timing. I have something I need you to do.â Nora hung up the phone, not suspecting that she was not good at interpersonal relationships after all. As she was about to go to bed, someone knocked on the door.
She opened the door and found Joel outside. He had an anxious look on his face. âNora, what exactly is going on with Karl?â
Nora calmly replied, âHeâs very sure of himself, and even told me heâll be fine.â
Joel: â?â
This time he had found it more difficult to ask and get news from the special department. Instead of asking others for news, he could ask Nora directly.
So, after Karl was taken away, he had been waiting for her to come home while also continuing to have his men ask around and find out what had happened.
But he hadnât expected that all she would say would be a few wordsâ¦.
Maybe it wasnât in her best interest to tell outsiders what was going on in the special department.
But⦠it didnât matter. Considering how reticent this younger sister of his was, she wouldnât be able to tell him clearly what had happened even if he wanted to hear it.
With that in mind, Joel nodded. Then he patted her on the shoulder and said, âI heard what happened to you. Itâs okay, donât get depressed about it.â
ââ¦What happened to me?â asked Nora.
Joel was surprised. âYou know, you got fired!â.
Nora blinked. âWhy would I be depressed about it?â.
Joel: â?â
The siblings stared at each other for a while. Then, Joel coughed and turned to leave. As soon as he turned around, Nora suddenly called out to him, âJoel.â
Joel looked back at her.
Nora asked him, âHow do you find me as a person?â.
How did he find her as a person?
Arrogant and conceited, of course. Plus, she was like a rock: never soft on anyone!
But could the wily fox Joel say that?
Certainly not.
He smiled and replied, âVery pretty.â Nora nodded in satisfaction. âWell, thatâs all there is to it.â
Without waiting for Joel to leave, she immediately turned around and closed the door.
⦠What a rude little girl!
After asking them both, Nora felt even more confident. See, they had both said she had a good personality, so how could she be unskilled in interpersonal relationships?
When she woke up the next day, Nora opened her eyes and saw Pete already sitting at the desk and studying quietly.
She stretched. Before she went to the bathroom to wash up, she looked at Pete and yelled, âPete?â
Pete looked up. âYes, Mom?â
His sonâs eyes were serious, which made Nora smile. She asked, âWhat do you think of your mom?â
Pete tilted his head.
Even though Mom was always sleeping or in the process of sleeping, for Pete, who had never had a mother since he was a baby, just having her in sight was already great.
Especially if he could see her right away every time he raised his head while she was in bed and asleep.
Pete smiled sincerely and said, âYouâre the mom who spends the most time with her child.â
A smiling Nora nodded.
See, not only did she have good relationships with others, but she was also the best mom in her childrenâs eyes!
After washing up, Nora opened the door and went downstairs. As she was about to eat breakfast, she suddenly saw Louis sneaking out.
Nora suddenly said, âLouis.â
Louis stopped and looked back at her, at which her eyes lit up. âNora?â
Nora tore off a piece of bread and asked, âWhat do you think of me as a person?â
Louis curved his lips in disdain at her question.
Not only was she cold, indifferent, and reticent-which made her seem like a walking refrigerator-she was also arrogant and snooty. Even her gait was so unfeminine.
But when he thought of Noraâs moneyâ¦. Louis smiled and replied, âKind, beautiful and approachable, Of course, Nora! Youâre practically a model woman of the time.â
Nora felt more satisfied.
She ate the bread in her hand, then asked, âWhere are you going?â Louis straightened his back and replied, âTo talk to my girlfriend about marriage!â.
Nora was taken aback. âYou have a girlfriend?â
Louis waved and replied, âOf course not. But Iâm going to find one now.â
Nora felt enlightened. She commented, âI knew it. How were you going to find a girlfriend with that bleached blonde hair you have?â.
Louis: â?????â
Why was his cousinâs mouth so toxic? Could he take back the compliments he had paid against his conscience?
It didnât matter. In light of the fact that he couldnât afford to mess with her because of how rich she was, heâd suck it up!
After asking several people in a row, in which they all said she had a good personality and was popular, Noraâs doubts had been dispelled. Confidently, she put out of her mind what Elder Mrs. Hunt had said the day before.
After finishing her breakfast, or rather, her lunch.
â Nora prepared to go upstairs to read her medical books and look for a way to treat Quentin.
As soon as she went upstairs, she saw Ian waving at her.
As Nora approached, Ian snapped a few photos and asked, âNora, what do you think of these people, are they good looking enough?â
She gave priority to a certain photo she had taken. The man in the photo looked a bit like Justin, he also had sunken eyes as well as a straight, sharp nose. Ian said, âHeâs an Oscar-winning actor. He sure is pretty good looking, isnât he?â.
â⦠Yes, heâs quite handsome.â
Ianâs eyes lit up. âHow about we meet him, then?â.
Nora yawned. âNo, thatâs okay. Justinâs still better looking.â
âHow can that be? Whichever way you look at it, heâs better looking than Justin, isnât he?â
Nora cocked her head to one side. âMaybe itâs becauseâ¦he doesnât have a beauty mark in the corner of his eye?â
Ian: â?????â
With that, Nora walked into her room.
Justinâs beauty mark in the corner of her eye was practically his signature. Nora wasnât lying when she said that just now: she really felt that Justinâs beauty mark in the corner of her eye was very distinctive!
ð ð ð ð ð
At the Huntsâ house.
When Justin finished the call from the night before, he walked over to the full-length mirror at home and looked at himself.
He touched his cheek with his big hand and rubbed the beauty mark in the corner of his eye.
It turned out that Nora liked her for her faceâ¦.
In that case, he had to unleash his strengths.
Suddenly, she picked up her phone and called Lawrence.
The man answered quickly. Justin told him, âSend me some face masks and skin care products.â
Justin was a fastidious man in his lifestyle, but he had always been relatively careless with his face. It was enough for him to wash his face every day. Now, however, things were different.
He was going to start paying attention to skin care!
So, Lawrence went over to hand Justin some face masks first thing in the morning. She told him, â⦠Apply this in the morning for five minutes. Then apply this lotion and then the emulsion. Also, this is for anti-agingâ¦â. After successively explaining all the functions of the skin care products, Lawrence noticed that his boss was rubbing his fingers over the beauty mark in the corner of his eye. To the point where the skin was turning red.
Justin suddenly asked, âTell me, do you think the mole can be removed? Why is it so ugly?â
â⦠Sure. Do you need me to make an appointment with the doctor?â
âYes, get in touch with them.â Justin was very concerned that the mole would affect his appearance.
Lawrence immediately contacted the director of the best cosmetic clinic in New York and spoke with him seriously. During the call, Lawrence went so far as to say, âThe news of Mr. Huntâs visit to the clinic must not be disseminated and must be kept absolutely confidential. Also, you have to get the best doctor in the clinic to do it and make sure there is no scarring. You must get a doctor with zero cosmetic surgery failures.â
âYes, yes, of course!â the director replied respectfully. Then, he asked, âWhat does Mr. Hunt want to do â his nose? The eyes? Or the whole face?â
Lawrence frowned and replied, âNone of that, of course. Itâs even more serious.â
The directorâs heart sank immediately.
It was an honor for the aesthetic clinic that Mr. Hunt wanted to come in for cosmetic surgery. However, it was also exceptionally stressful to perform cosmetic surgery on wealthy people like him. After all, everyoneâs sense of aesthetics was different. If Mr. Hunt was dissatisfied, the clinicâs reputation would suffer.
The director was filled with trepidation. He asked, âSo, what part of the body do you intend to treat?â
A more important area than the eyes, nose and face would be?
Could it be that Mr. Hunt found that a certain part of himself was not strong enough? And he wanted to do something about it? As the directorâs imagination ran wild, Lawrence said seriously, âIn the corner of his eyeâ¦â
The corner of his eye⦠The director breathed a sigh of relief. Although operating on the corner of the eye was a minor operation, the truth was that it would be very unsightly if not done properly.
However, the corners of Mr. Huntâs eyes were quite prettyâ¦.
Then, he heard the rest of Lawrenceâs words: â⦠itâs a moleâ.
The director: â?????â
After making an appointment, Justin looked at the time and realized he would be just in time to have dinner with Nora after removing the mole.
Yes, hopefully, he could surprise her in the evening!

In the special department.
Johnson had already arrived first thing in the morning. When Morris saw him, he approached him and said, âSir, I think the dismissal of Nora Smith as our medical examiner requires further discussion.â
Johnson gestured and said, âThere is nothing to discuss. The department doesnât need people with medical expertise â what we need is talent like Black Cat and Q! Iâve already emailed them both and invited them to join the team, so Iâm waiting to hear back from them!â
Then, he said, âAnd now, Iâm going to interrogate Karl! No one is allowed in the room without my permission!â
